I might be wrong, but I don't think that any VAG car has had a "proper" auto box for some years now. They have either been DSG or CVT which they built "steps" into to make it feel like a TC auto & called it Tiptronic. Neither of which have great reputations for reliability.
I would look at Hyundai IX20 or Kia Venga if I was them. Both have fairly high seating and a proper TC box.
